Ingredients
Maple Dijon Dressing
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl or mason jar, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and apple cider vinegar until well blended.
- Incorporate Olive Oil: Slowly stream in the olive oil while continuously whisking to emulsify the dressing and create a smooth, creamy texture.
- Season and Adjust: Add the kosher salt and black pepper, then whisk or shake vigorously to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Taste and Finalize: Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning by adding more salt, pepper, or maple syrup if desired. Serve immediately or refrigerate in a sealed container.
Notes
- Use fresh garlic for the best flavor; finely mince or press for even distribution.
- Substitute red wine vinegar if apple cider vinegar is unavailable for a slightly different acidity profile.
- Shake the dressing well before each use as ingredients may separate over time.
- Store dressing in the refrigerator for up to one week.
